DMH Exhaust Cutout ?
I just received my DMH exhaust cutout today in the mail, and while examining it with my brothers, we were all kind of confused about the cutout itself. For some reason I had this impression that there was going to be another butterfly valve inside the tube to cut off exhaust flow going into the exhaust system. Seems a little weird to me that even when the cutout is open that exhaust can still go through the existing exhaust system. I find it particulary stranger that if you were running an aftermarket system that it'd be going out of the cutout and the aftermarket muffler at the same time. Am I right about this, or is there something I'm missing?

Awesome, can't wait guys. Since I'm not having him install the electric motor there, I'll just open it manually until I have my older brother help me do the wiring. Can't wait to hear that hemi roar!
...btw Teach, signature picture shows that truck off much better than the previous one. Looks awesome.

It is a mechanical valve that you put in-line in your exhaust system before your muffler. When it is closed the exhaust flows through the system normally, when it is open the exhaust exits prior to the muffler and sounds bad a$$ . I have a clip around here somewhere of mine open so you can hear what it sounds like.
Here it is, it is just a light throttle acceleration since I don't really want to **** off the neighbors but it gives you an idea of what it sounds like open.
